The elegant neck-through five-string is brought to life with a five-piece wenge and purpleheart neck and swamp ash body wings. Its top is a stunning piece of Eye Poplar in a transparent three-tone sunburst. <\/p>\n<p>For electronics, Mayones opted for a pair of Aguilar pickups: an AG 5SD-D2 Super Double in the bridge position and an AG 5SS-D2 Super Single in the neck position. The pickups feed into a Mayones M-BP3 preamp with an active\/passive switch as well as a mid-frequency switch. Finally, the Mayones X25 Bridge and Schaller M4 tuners hold things together. <\/p>\n<div class=\"section\">\n<div class=\"carousel-sync-wrap\">\n<div class=\"carousel-gallery carousel-sync-main\">\n<div class=\"carousel-item\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.notreble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Mayones-Guitars-Caledonius-Classic-5-Custom-Bass-Body-1000x667.jpeg\" class=\"img-fluid\" alt=\"\"><\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-item --><\/p>\n<div class=\"carousel-item\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.notreble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Mayones-Guitars-Caledonius-Classic-5-Custom-Bass-Body-2-1000x667.jpeg\" class=\"img-fluid\" alt=\"\"><\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-item --><\/p>\n<div class=\"carousel-item\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.notreble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Mayones-Guitars-Caledonius-Classic-5-Custom-Bass-Body-Closeup-1000x667.jpeg\" class=\"img-fluid\" alt=\"\"><\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-item --><\/p>\n<div class=\"carousel-item\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.notreble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Mayones-Guitars-Caledonius-Classic-5-Custom-Bass-Pickups-and-Bridge-1000x667.jpeg\" class=\"img-fluid\" alt=\"\"><\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-item -->\n\t\t    <\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-sync-main -->    <\/p>\n<div class=\"carousel-sync-nav\">\n<div class=\"carousel-item\"><\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-item --><\/p>\n<div class=\"carousel-item\"><\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-item --><\/p>\n<div class=\"carousel-item\"><\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-item --><\/p>\n<div class=\"carousel-item\"><\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-item -->\n\t\t    <\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-sync-nav -->  <\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-sync-wrap --><\/div>\n<p><!-- .section --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week we\u2019re checking out a spectacular Caledonius Classic 5 Custom from Poland\u2019s Mayones Guitars.
